BlackBerry Storm unveiled

Every phone maker is coming up with their answer to Apple's iPhone. The latest to be unveiled is Research In Motion's BlackBerry Storm.This touch-screen BlackBerry smartphone will be made available exclusively to Verizon Wireless subscribers in the U.S. and Vodafone subscribers in Europe, India, Australia and New Zealand.

In comparison to the iPhone, the phone is slightly heavier and the screen is slightly smaller (3.25-inch screen as compared to the iPhone's 3.5 inches). The phone doesn't have Wi-Fi Internet access.

Have you guys tried this phone yet. I stopped by a Verizon store the other day and gave it a shot. I wasn't impressed with the touch screen. I know they say that is has a feedback response to the screen - but it felt more like a plastic see-saw to me.
